Legal Question in Family Law in India

Maintenance under section 24

Wife filed petition for maintenance of amount Rs. 5000 per month under section 24 in reply to my RCR case by stating that ''she is not working anywhere and had no source of income and is at the mercy of thier parents.''

I had no. of proofs of her working and she herself stated in another petition that she is govt. contractual employee. She is still working at that job. Job is of type of ''contractual but likely to permanent''.

Now can I file counter case against her for stating wrong facts before court by attaching all those proofs or I have to wait till judgement pronounced by court in said maintenance case
